Nehemiah 13:15–23 (ESV) Back
15In those days I saw in Judah people
treading winepresses on the Sabbath, and bringing in heaps of grain and loading
them on donkeys, and also wine, grapes, figs, and all kinds of loads, which
they brought into Jerusalem on the Sabbath day. And I warned them on the day
when they sold food. 16Tyrians also, who lived in the city, brought in
fish and all kinds of goods and sold them on the Sabbath to the people of
Judah, in Jerusalem itself! 17Then I confronted the nobles of Judah and
said to them, “What is this evil thing that you are doing, profaning the
Sabbath day? 18Did not your fathers act in this way, and did not
our God bring all this disaster on us and on this city? Now you are bringing
more wrath on Israel by profaning the Sabbath.” 19As soon as it began to grow dark at the
gates of Jerusalem before the Sabbath, I commanded that the doors should be
shut and gave orders that they should not be opened until after the Sabbath.
And I stationed some of my servants at the gates, that no load might be brought
in on the Sabbath day. 20Then the merchants and sellers of all kinds of
wares lodged outside Jerusalem once or twice. 21But I warned them and said to them, “Why
do you lodge outside the wall? If you do so again, I will lay hands on you.”
From that time on they did not come on the Sabbath. 22Then I commanded the Levites that they should
purify themselves and come and guard the gates, to keep the Sabbath day holy.
Remember this also in my favor, O my God, and spare me according to the
greatness of your steadfast love. 23In those days also I saw the Jews who had
married women of Ashdod, Ammon, and Moab.
Nehemiah 13:15-23 (KJ3) Back
15¶ In those days I saw in Judah
ones treading wine presses on the Sabbath, and bringing in sheaves and loading
asses; and also wine, grapes, and figs, and all burdens, which they brought
into Jerusalem on the Sabbath day. And I testified against them on the
day they sold food.
16 Men of Tyre also lived in it,
who brought fish and all wares, and were selling on the Sabbath to the sons of
Judah, even in Jerusalem.
17 And I contended with the nobles
of Judah and said to them, What is this evil thing that you do, defiling
the Sabbath day?
18 Did not your fathers do this,
and did not our God bring all this evil on us and on this city? Yet you bring
more wrath on Israel by defiling the Sabbath.
19 And it happened, when the gates
of Jerusalem began to be dark before the Sabbath, I said that the gates should
be shut, and said that they should not be opened until after the Sabbath. And I
stationed some of my servants at the gates, so that there should be no
burden brought in on the Sabbath day.
20 And the merchants and sellers of
all the wares stayed the night outside Jerusalem once or twice.
21 Then I testified against them
and said to them, Why are you staying around the wall? If you do it again,
I will send a hand against you. From that time they did not come on the
Sabbath.
22 And I said to the Levites that
they should be cleansing themselves, and they should come guarding the gates,
to sanctify the Sabbath day. O my God, remember me for this also and spare me
according to the greatness of Your mercy.

treading wine presses on the sabbath, and bringing in sacks of grain and
loading them on donkeys, as well as wine, grapes, figs and all kinds of loads,
and they brought them into Jerusalem on the sabbath day. So I admonished them
on the day they sold food. 16Also men of Tyre were living there who
imported fish and all kinds of merchandise, and sold them to the sons of Judah
on the sabbath, even in Jerusalem. 17Then I reprimanded the nobles of Judah and
said to them, “What is this evil thing you are doing, by profaning the sabbath
day? 18“Did not your fathers do the same, so that our God brought on us and on
this city all this trouble? Yet you are adding to the wrath on Israel by
profaning the sabbath.” 19It came about that just as it grew dark at the
gates of Jerusalem before the sabbath, I commanded that the doors should be
shut and that they should not open them until after the sabbath. Then I
stationed some of my servants at the gates so that no load would enter on the
sabbath day. 20Once or twice the traders and merchants of every
kind of merchandise spent the night outside Jerusalem. 21Then I warned them and said to them, “Why
do you spend the night in front of the wall? If you do so again, I will use
force against you.” From that time on they did not come on the sabbath. 22And I
commanded the Levites that they should purify themselves and come as
gatekeepers to sanctify the sabbath day. For this also remember me, O my God,
and have compassion on me according to the greatness of Your lovingkindness. 23In
those days I also saw that the Jews had married women from Ashdod, Ammon and
Moab.

they sold food.
16 Some men of Tyre also lived there, who
brought in fish and all kinds of wares, and sold on the Sabbath to the children
of Judah, and in Jerusalem.
17 Then I contended with the nobles of Judah,
and said to them, “What evil thing is this that you do, and profane the Sabbath
day?
18 Didn’t your fathers do this, and didn’t our
God bring all this evil on us, and on this city? Yet you bring more wrath on
Israel by profaning the Sabbath.”
19 It came to pass that when the gates of
Jerusalem began to be dark before the Sabbath, I commanded that the doors
should be shut, and commanded that they should not be opened until after the
Sabbath. I set some of my servants over the gates, so that no burden should be
brought in on the Sabbath day.
20 So the merchants and sellers of all kinds of
wares camped outside of Jerusalem once or twice.
21 Then I testified against them, and said to them,
“Why do you stay around the wall? If you do so again, I will lay hands on you.”
From that time on, they didn’t come on the Sabbath.

purify themselves, and that they should come and keep the gates, to sanctify

1Let every person be subject to the
governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those
that exist have been instituted by God. 2Therefore whoever resists the authorities
resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. 3For
rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of
the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his
approval, 4for he is God’s servant for your good. But if you
do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the
servant of God, an avenger who carries out God’s wrath on the wrongdoer. 5Therefore
one must be in subjection, not only to avoid God’s wrath but also for the sake
of conscience.

authority? Do the good, and you will have praise from it;
4 for it is a servant of God to
you for the good. But if you do the bad things, be afraid; for it does
not bear the sword in vain; for it is a servant of God, an avenger for wrath to

good behavior, but for evil. Do you want to have no fear of authority? Do what
is good and you will have praise from the same; 4for it is a minister of God to you for
good. But if you do what is evil, be afraid; for it does not bear the sword for
nothing; for it is a minister of God, an avenger who brings wrath on the one

1After this Absalom got himself a chariot
and horses, and fifty men to run before him. 2And Absalom used to rise early and stand
beside the way of the gate. And when any man had a dispute to come before the
king for judgment, Absalom would call to him and say, “From what city are you?”
And when he said, “Your servant is of such and such a tribe in Israel,” 3Absalom
would say to him, “See, your claims are good and right, but there is no man
designated by the king to hear you.” 4Then Absalom would say, “Oh that I were
judge in the land! Then every man with a dispute or cause might come to me, and
I would give him justice.” 5And whenever a man came near to pay homage
to him, he would put out his hand and take hold of him and kiss him. 6Thus
Absalom did to all of Israel who came to the king for judgment. So Absalom
stole the hearts of the men of Israel. 7And at the end of four years Absalom said
to the king, “Please let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed to the Lord,
in Hebron. 8For your servant vowed a vow while I lived at
Geshur in Aram, saying, ‘If the Lord will indeed bring me back to Jerusalem,
then I will offer worship to the Lord.’ ” 9The king said to him, “Go in peace.” So he
arose and went to Hebron. 10But Absalom sent secret messengers
throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “As soon as you hear the sound of
the trumpet, then say, ‘Absalom is king at Hebron!’ ” 11With Absalom went two hundred men from
Jerusalem who were invited guests, and they went in their innocence and knew
nothing. 12And while Absalom was offering the sacrifices, he
sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David’s counselor, from his city Giloh. And
the conspiracy grew strong, and the people with Absalom kept increasing. 13And a
messenger came to David, saying, “The hearts of the men of Israel have gone
after Absalom.” 14Then David said to all his servants who were with
him at Jerusalem, “Arise, and let us flee, or else there will be no escape for
us from Absalom. Go quickly, lest he overtake us quickly and bring down ruin on
us and strike the city with the edge of the sword.” 15And the king’s servants said to the king,
“Behold, your servants are ready to do whatever my lord the king decides.” 16So the
king went out, and all his household after him. And the king left ten
concubines to keep the house. 17And the king went out, and all the people
after him. And they halted at the last house. 18And all his servants passed by him, and
all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the six hundred Gittites
who had followed him from Gath, passed on before the king.
19Then the king
said to Ittai the Gittite, “Why do you also go with us? Go back and stay with
the king, for you are a foreigner and also an exile from your home. 20You came
only yesterday, and shall I today make you wander about with us, since I go I
know not where? Go back and take your brothers with you, and may the Lord show
steadfast love and faithfulness to you.” 21But Ittai answered the king, “As the Lord
lives, and as my lord the king lives, wherever my lord the king shall be,
whether for death or for life, there also will your servant be.” 22And
David said to Ittai, “Go then, pass on.” So Ittai the Gittite passed on with
all his men and all the little ones who were with him.

1¶ And it happened afterward that
Absalom prepared a chariot for himself, and horses, and fifty men running
before him.
2 And Absalom rose up and stood by
the side of the way of the gate. And it happened that every man who had a cause
to come to the king for judgment, Absalom called to him and said, Of what city are
you? And he said, Your servant is from one of the tribes of Israel.
3 And Absalom said to him, Behold,
your matters are good and right. And there is no listener to you from
the king.
4 And Absalom said, Who shall make
me a judge in the land, that every man who has a dispute, I will then declare
him right, even with judgment?
5 And it happened, when a man drew
near to bow himself to him, he put out his hand and laid hold on him, and gave
him a kiss.
6 And Absalom acted this way to
all Israel who came in to the king for judgment. And Absalom stole the heart of
the men of Israel.
7¶ And at the end of forty years,
it happened, Absalom said to the king, Please let me go and I shall pay my vow
that I have vowed to Jehovah, in Hebron.
8 For your servant has vowed a vow
when I lived in Geshur in Syria, saying, If bringing Jehovah shall bring me
back to Jerusalem, then I shall serve Jehovah.
9 And the king said to him, Go in
peace. And he rose up and went to Hebron.
10 And Absalom sent spies among all
the tribes of Israel, saying, When you hear the sound of the rams’ horn, then
you shall say, Absalom is king in Hebron.
11 And two hundred men went out of
Jerusalem with Absalom, chosen ones. And they went out in their simplicity and
did not know anything.
12 And Absalom sent Ahithophel the
Gilonite, a counselor of David, out of his city, out of Giloh, as he offered
the sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong. And the people were going on and
increasing with Absalom.
13¶ And a messenger came to David,
saying, The hearts of the men of Israel have gone after Absalom.
14 And David said to all his
servants who were with him in Jerusalem, Rise up, and we will flee; for
there is no escape from the face of Absalom. Hurry to leave, lest he
overtake us and bring evil down on us, and strike the city with the mouth of
the sword.
15 And the king’s servants said to
the king, According to all that my lord the king chooses, behold, your servants
will do.
16 And the king went out, and all
his household at his feet. And the king left ten women, concubines, to keep the
house.
17 And the king went out, and all
the people at his feet. And they stood still at the house farthest away.
18 And all his servants were
passing on by his side, and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and
all the Gittites, six hundred men who came at his feet from Gath. These were
passing on before the king.
19 And the king said to Ittai the
Gittite, Why do you go, even you, with us? Turn back and remain with the king,
for you are a foreigner, and also you are an exile. Go to your
place.
20 You came in yesterday and today.
Should I make you roam with us, to go while I go, where I go? Turn back, and
turn back your brothers to go with you in kindness and truth.
21 And Ittai answered to the king
and said, As Jehovah lives, and my lord the king lives, surely in the
place where my lord the king is, there your servant shall be, whether for death
or for life.
22 And David said to Ittai, Go on
and pass over. And Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the
little ones who were with him.

1Now it came about after this that Absalom
provided for himself a chariot and horses and fifty men as runners before him. 2Absalom
used to rise early and stand beside the way to the gate; and when any man had a
suit to come to the king for judgment, Absalom would call to him and say, “From
what city are you?” And he would say, “Your servant is from one of the tribes
of Israel.” 3Then Absalom would say to him, “See, your claims
are good and right, but no man listens to you on the part of the king.” 4Moreover,
Absalom would say, “Oh that one would appoint me judge in the land, then every
man who has any suit or cause could come to me and I would give him justice.” 5And when
a man came near to prostrate himself before him, he would put out his hand and
take hold of him and kiss him. 6In this manner Absalom dealt with all
Israel who came to the king for judgment; so Absalom stole away the hearts of
the men of Israel. 7Now it came about at the end of forty years that
Absalom said to the king, “Please let me go and pay my vow which I have vowed

from Jerusalem, who were invited and went innocently, and they did not know
anything. 12And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite,
David’s counselor, from his city Giloh, while he was offering the sacrifices.
And the conspiracy was strong, for the people increased continually with

escape from Absalom. Go in haste, or he will overtake us quickly and bring down
calamity on us and strike the city with the edge of the sword.” 15Then

today make you wander with us, while I go where I will? Return and take back
your brothers; mercy and truth be with you.” 21But Ittai answered the king and said, “As
the Lord lives, and as my lord the king lives, surely wherever my lord the king
may be, whether for death or for life, there also your servant will be.” 22Therefore
David said to Ittai, “Go and pass over.” So Ittai the Gittite passed over with

1 Kings 12:13–16 (ESV) Back
13And the king answered the people harshly,
and forsaking the counsel that the old men had given him, 14he spoke to them according to the counsel
of the young men, saying, “My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to your
yoke. My father disciplined you with whips, but I will discipline you with
scorpions.” 15So the king did not listen to the people, for it
was a turn of affairs brought about by the Lord that he might fulfill his word,
which the Lord spoke by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat. 16And
when all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them, the people answered
the king, “What portion do we have in David? We have no inheritance in the son
of Jesse. To your tents, O Israel! Look now to your own house, David.” So
Israel went to their tents.

the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, and I
shall add to your yoke; my father chastised you with whips, and I will chastise
you with scorpions.
15 And the king did not listen to
the people, for the turn of events was from Jehovah, in order to lift up His
Word that Jehovah spoke by the hand of Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son
of Nebat.
16¶ And all Israel saw that the
king did not listen to them, and the people sent the king back word, saying,
What portion is for us in David? Yea, there is no inheritance in
the son of Jesse; to your tents, O Israel; now see to your house, O
David! And Israel went to its tents.

your yoke heavy, but I will add to your yoke; my father disciplined you with
whips, but I will discipline you with scorpions.” 15So the king did not listen to the people;
for it was a turn of events from the Lord, that He might establish His word,
which the Lord spoke through Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat. 16When
all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them, the people answered the
king, saying, “What portion do we have in David? We have no inheritance in the
son of Jesse; To your tents, O Israel! Now look after your own house, David!”
So Israel departed to their tents.

Nebat.

offerings that I commanded, and honor your sons above me by fattening
yourselves on the choicest parts of every offering of my people Israel?’ 30Therefore
the Lord, the God of Israel, declares: ‘I promised that your house and the
house of your father should go in and out before me forever,’ but now the Lord
declares: ‘Far be it from me, for those who honor me I will honor, and those
